The Council of State has decided on the work of the Ministry of Labour of 28 June 1958. (299/58) , as defined by the Law of 29 January 1993, (144/93) :
This Decision shall apply to the selection and use of personal protective equipment in the Safety and Health Act (299/58) Of the job.
In addition to what is laid down in this Decision, the use of personal protective equipment has to be respected or imposed.
For the purposes of this Decision, the personal protective device shall mean any personal equipment and equipment used by the worker designed to protect the worker from the risk of an accident or illness at work.
However, this Decision does not include:
(1) normal work clothes which are not specifically designed to protect the worker from the risk of accident or illness;
(2) means of transport within the meaning of road transport legislation;
3) sports equipment;
(4) self-defence or expulsion instruments; and
5) portable hazard detection equipment.
If the risk of an accident or illness cannot be avoided or sufficiently restricted by the protection measures or the organisation of work against technical working conditions, the employer shall, on the basis of the assessment referred to in Article 4: The employee's personal protective equipment. The protective equipment must be suitable for the prevention of hazards associated with this work and suitable for working conditions and should not unnecessarily increase the risk of other hazards.
The employer shall ensure that only protective equipment which complies with the requirements relating to them in accordance with the conditions laid down or laid down shall be made available for work.
The worker shall use the personal protective equipment referred to in paragraph 1.
Before selecting the protective equipment, the employer shall assess the hazards at work, to avoid or limit the protective equipment used in accordance with Article 3. The assessment shall include the definition of the protection characteristics required for personal protective equipment and the comparison of the available protective equipment with the required characteristics. The assessment shall also take into account the risks or disadvantages that may arise from the protection itself.
The assessment of personal protective equipment shall be re-evaluated if changes occur in other factors affecting the circumstances or the assessment.
The selection of protective equipment shall take into account the requirements of ergonomics and the state of health of the worker. After the necessary adjustments, the protective equipment shall be suitable for use. At the same time, the protective equipment used must be compatible so that they continue to protect against such dangers.
The employer shall ensure that the use of personal protective equipment, in particular the length of the period of use, is determined. In this case, account shall be taken of the severity of the hazard, the frequency of exposure, the specificities of the place of employment of the worker and the protection of the protective equipment.
The instructions for the acquisition and use of personal protective equipment are given in Annexes I to III to this Decision.
The protective equipment is for personal use, provided that the circumstances are not otherwise. If, by way of exception, more than one person is required to use more than one person for personal use, the necessary steps must be taken to ensure that such use does not raise health or hygiene problems for different users.
The employer shall ensure the proper functioning of the protective equipment through maintenance and repair. If necessary, the protective equipment shall be renewed.
The worker must be carefully managed by the person responsible for his/her use and shall immediately inform the employer or his/her representative of the defects and inadequacy of the person concerned.
The person's protective equipment and its use must be provided with adequate training and guidance.
There is a separate provision for cooperation and information between employer and employee.
Further provisions on the application of this Decision shall be provided, where appropriate, by the Ministry of Labour.
However, in addition to this decision, the Ministry of the Interior may order the selection and use of police, fire and rescue and civil protection equipment.
This Decision shall enter into force on 1 January 1994.
